Is it so hard to find a house (rental).. or shall i say a house with a good landlord.
Iv found a nice house, applied for it, and got accepted but the guy creeps me out!! Hes a divorced late 30 early 40s guy, and when i went to have a look through it, dressed nicely and by myself, he mentioned my daughter and i said yes, shes 19 months old, and he looks me up and down like 'that' you know what i mean. It freaks me out, because he lives in the house behind the one iv been excepted for. When i was applying he was talking to me about how hes divorced and doesnt do much and what not. So iv decided to turn it down, it was more than ideal but not perfect but hes put me off. So tonight at 7pm i have to look through what seems to be the perfect house for me! 2 bedrooms, big yard, open plan, very tidy and double internal excess garage and the lady sounds lovely!! BUT Shes going to take one look at me, see im young and probably give it to someone else

I wouldnt be too sure bout that Kandice, If I was to rent my house out I would def rather a tidy and respectful young family to give them a chance as I've already said to Lisa85. Good luck with the house hunting hopefully the one you see tonight will be the right one for you guys!
And I think that guy is also very creepy and inappropriate! Dodgy even...... ------------- My Beautiful Little Emily http://lilypie.com">

ewwww... yeah I wouldn't want someone who creeps me out living right behind me either... especially if he looks like he will knock on the door 'for a cup of sugar' cos hes not up too much.
Its very hard finding the right rental at a good price! (and bonus to have great landlords!!) so hope it goes well, think positive  -------------

renting is a nightmare!!
alot of people go on about the perils of renters but it definetly goes the other way too! we are a family of 4 soon to be 5 and thankfully after alot of stress finally found a suitable house for us to rent WITH great landlords!!! its $350 a wk (4 brms , big yard, dbl garage) and as we desperatly are trying to save some money im really reluctant to downsize ahouse because of that very reason...landlord hunting!! who wants a landlord looming over your every move anyway! i would hate one to be that close...its important to be able to relax and feel at home (especially with kids) ------------- http://www.magicalkingdoms.com/timers/">

think positively kandice. get rid of the negative thoughts cause they will be projected back and hinder your chances. just let your natural personality shine, turn up on time, well dressed and with a good attitude....
